Gulholmen Lighthouse
Location & Light Range
About Gulholmen Lighthouse
This lighthouse is situated on a skerry at the entrance to Nordskaget, a sheltered harbor on Frøya island. The structure consists of a 6-meter lantern room, painted white with a red roof, which is mounted on a platform supported by piles. Its focal height is 7.5 meters, and it emits a light that displays two white, red, or green flashes every 8 seconds. This navigational aid has a geographic range of 9.5 nautical miles. The site is open to visitors, but the tower itself remains closed to the public.
Why it matters: The lighthouse's directional light is essential for vessels navigating into Nordskaget harbor and serves to mark the skerry it occupies, preventing groundings in this area.
